You must be deaf. I got that impression about quite a few people at Neve,

I am 57 now and I am beginning to go deaf. I certainly wasn't deaf in
the 70s - wish I could as well as that now.

Seems like you never had any manners though.

I'm not one for 'doffing my cap' in the usual English defential manner to those who like
to present themselves as my 'betters' who are actually clueless. Paying homage to
ancient and miserable sounding Tannoys is another thing I won't stomach.

I was appalled at the level of disinterest in audio within the 'board' at Neve. That's
one reason I quit after about 3 years as a project leader. I could see they were heading
for failure, and indeed it was so.
